Heparincardiopulmonary bypass pump flow rate
What this trial is about
Standard Heparin management, based on total body weight, is not well established for obese patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of using lean body mass (LBM) to determine pump flow rate and/or Heparin dosage in obese patients undergoing CPB.
